Two days / Two Workouts

I did the figure 8 extra plus doing 9.12 miles in 2:04:36 for a 13:39 minute per mile pace with an average heartrate of 108 bpm. The elevation gain didn’t register and neither did the temperature. It was pouring rain at times making me consider shortening the workout. When I finished I was glad that I finished and pleased with the pace considering I did 3 sets of squats the night before. I watched a movie in Ronkonkoma with Rebekah. Today I hiked the Greenway trail doing 9.81 miles in 2:44:30 for a 16:45 minute per mile pace with an elevation gain of 626 feet at a temp of 54 degrees with 100 percent humidity and a pulse of 100 bpm. Char did her first wedding last night in Hawaii. Very nice! God Bless !

So Slow Even With Joe

I had the day off yesterday as I had to take Charlotte to her friends to go the airport—- now in Hawaii. This morning I did the figure 8 Randall combo loop doing 9.01 miles in 2:09:46 for a 14:23 minute per mile pace with an elevation gain of 165 feet with an average heart rate of 111 bpm at a comfortable 62 degrees and 65 percent humidity. It was nice to have a beautiful morning. God bless!

Rain , but I like it!

I got out a bit later, so I did the Medford/Randall/Woodlot Loop doing 8.97 miles in 1:57:53 for a 13:08 minute per mile pace with an elevation gain of 202 feet with an average heart rate of 126 bpm at a temp of 59 degrees with 84 percent humidity. As the workout progressed the rain increased, yet it was never a soaking rain. My first day in long sleeves. Had to stop off at the game preserve restroom. Have a blessed day!

Lonely Monday

I was all alone in the house last night. I couldn’t quickly fall asleep, but it wasn’t too bad. I find that I do not cherish being alone at home. I am comfortable by myself, but I’m finding that I prefer having somebody home. I have enjoyed the change in air with fall now officially here. I did the Longwood Loop doing 9.19 miles in 2:02:31 for a 13:19 minute per mile pace with an elevation gain of 320 feet and an average heart rate of 111 bpm at a comfortable 57 degrees with 90 percent humidity. My wife is at a conference today and Lord willing will be here tonight— leaving again on Wednesday. Have a blessed day!

Two on Sunday

I decided on doing two hikes on this Lord’s Day. This morning I did 3 miles down in Wertheim before watching my wife Charlotte speak in church. This afternoon I did 7:55 miles in approximately 2:05 for approval a 17 minute per mile pace with an elevation gain of 550 feet with an average heartrate of 102 bpm at a comfortable 65 degrees and 69 percent humidity. My wife is going to be gone for the best part of the next 10 days between Lancaster, PA and Hawaii. Looking forward to what God’s going to do. Have a blessed day!

Not Quite Right

It seems as if my routines are having constant minor interruptions which is putting me back a bit. Fortunately, my commute was quick. Today I did the figure 8 extra plus doing 8.69 in 2:02:04 for a 14:02 minute per mile pace with an elevation gain of 202 feet with an average heart rate of 144 bpm at a comfortable temp of 63 degrees and 88 percent humidity. Last night the Red Sox clinched the AL East division over the Yankees at the stadium and their Browns won their first game in years with Baker Mayfield coming off the bench to beat the Jets. Have a blessed day!

Better Going

I kind of got out in the inbetween time, but I opted to go the longer Longwood Loop doing 9.15 miles in 2:03:37 for a 13:30 minute per mile pace with an elevation gain of 330 feet with an average heartrate of 118 bpm at a comfortable 60 degrees and 83 percent humidity on a dark overcast Thursday morning. Fortunately, I found my headlamp for my hat which helped immensely in the dark segments of the workout. Have a blessed day!
